Initiatives for decarbonization➢Greenhouse gas reduction across the supply chain➢

By 2030, we aim to reduce GHG emissions by 46% from our own energy consumption(compared to 2013), grasp emissions in the entire supply chain, and achieve carbon
neutrality by 2050.

Initiatives for clean energy➢Organic Photovoltaics (OPV)➢ OPV is a more eco-friendly solar cell because it generates about 1/5
of CO₂ during production compared to silicon solar cells.
➢ Currently, we are the only company in Japan that manufactures OPV
modules for continuous printing.

Flexible OPV module

OPV is installed in the officeof a commercial building.

Designing by printing
on the OPV surface

Free design is given by laser technology that can handle continuous film.
Various designs are given by printing on the OPV surface.
→It contributes to the realization of a low-carbon society by obtaining
electricity more closely.

Efforts to solve social issues➢Radiation resistant lubricants➢ Demonstrates stable lubrication performance for a long
period of time in nuclear facilities.
NEW The first step in the decommissioning of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station,
the world's highest level radiation-resistant lubricants "MORESCO-HIRAD" was installed
in all drive parts of the fuel debris * extraction equipment.
• A nuclear fuel rod in a furnace that melts and falls during an accident and then cools and resolidifies.
It emits the highest radioactive rays in the residue.
● Arm total length about 22m● Can be equipped with survey equipment up to 10 kg
Trolley

Boom
Telescoping

・Radiation generated in nuclear reactors
accelerates the deterioration of lubricants
used in their peripheral equipment(evaporation / solidification).
→In order to operate the equipment
continuously, a lubricant with extremely
high radiation resistance is required.

・Demand for HDDs is declining year by year, but near-line drives (NL) for data centers are
expected to grow.
・Since the number of media installed in the near-line drive is large, the number of media
produced is small but tends to increase.

→We have already sold more than 90% of our HD lube products for the near line.
・Two new products that improve storage density and save energy by making the film
thinner than before have been adopted for new HDDs for near-line HDD manufacturers.
